Wifi naming convention going the opposite approach of USB. What a time to be alive!
Hot red nuke button pressed (I totally didn't press it)
no sense...
802.11b > 802.11a = debatable
802.11n > 802.11a/b/g = makes sense
802.11ac > 802.11n = now you've lost me
802.11 ax > 802.11ac = makes sense again but now you're almost out of letters for no good reason
Just scrolled down to say the exact same thing, kudos to Wi-Fi for understanding the need for sensible and consumer friendly naming conventions.

Good job Wi-Fi naming team, they must watched Linus’ video about the usb naming scheme
@Conor A marketing ploy that makes existence more convenient is a good marketing ploy
Its the IEEE that does the naming.
It's still called 802.11ax. It's just marketed as WiFi 6 by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
@@master74200 Yeah... All them standards will still be 8xx.xxxxx or whatever.
@Conor of course no one has used the term "wifi 5" before; it had a much less useful name before. Because a b g n ac makes so much sense in your mind, right?
Did you spend New Year's day telling people not to say that the year is 2019, because previously people were saying that the year is 2018?
If you want to claim that no one should rename prior protocols, you'd have a point - if the prior convention made sense and if the new convention doesn't (ie, the USB Consortium idiots). But the new convention is pretty backwards compatible because it keeps the correct order and number of generations. And, new devices will be made at the old standard because they are cheaper to make, and there's no reason to have g, n, ac, and 6 all on the shelf when they can be labelled 3, 4, 5, 6. Otherwise, you'll need to find a different and inevitably-stupid name for gen6 and explain that the order of the lettered generations are the 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation in not-quite alphabetical order (ac messes that up). And at that point you've just given them the same numbers that the new convention uses.

You forgot to meantion that WiFi 5 (AC) only updated 5Ghz, but WiFi 6 (AX) also updates the 2.4Ghz band, so we'll have faster WiFi on 2.4Ghz for the first time in a LONG time
i think you answered my question to linus lol
djmartrix happy to help, honestly, with my thick walls and large house the 2.4Ghz improvements are the most exciting part, most of my house doesn’t get coverage on 5Ghz.
Just a thought to expand on this, the 2.4Ghz portion of the WiFi spec has not been updated since 802.11n (WiFi 4 in the new nomenclature if I’m not mistaken)
hurray
I think the fact that WiFi 5 (ac) did not work on 2.4Ghz was a good thing for the same reason that Linus mentioned in this video. To get good effects we need to wait for majority of devices to support new standard.
Cose even a single device that is running in old standard on the same frequency will introduce colisions and interference.
@@hubertnnn but without a chance to update hardware, that just pushes the problem down the road, we'll have the same problem now, so IMO that point is moot.
My New Years resolution was to future proof my home with WiFi 6 / 802.11ax hardware ( ran brand new cat.6 cable through the walls too for dedicated keystone connections).

I was gonna skip this because a video on wifi seemed boring...then I ended up leaning forward entranced in the whole video. This is seriously some amazing advancement in something that has been stagnant for so long.
Cool tech, shame it won't ever be in my area until 10-15 years from now.
I'll probably buy a WiFi 6 router for home use, but most public places with WiFi will still be using 802.11n for a while.
We're already planning WiFi 6 for our community center network upgrade and I live in a town so small we have 1 gas station and no street lights. Our town is so small the closest Walmart or McDonald's is a 1 hour drive to the next town.
Seems good! I have so Many mobile and Wi-Fi devices that a standard that can service Many of them at higher speed is good. If there is just one or two of them the ac aka Wi-Fi 5 is just fine. But if all of them Are using Wi-Fi at the same time there is quite a big drop. If this actually make situation better in the future... that is good!
I would like to see a mixed test with Wi-Fi 4, Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 devices Connected to same node and see how They would behave during simultaneous tress testing! Does the older devices hamper the speed of Wi-Fi 6 devices? Doe the use of Wi-Fi 6 devices leave more room to older standardi to breath? Or does a couple of old devices hinder Also the new wifi6 devices so badly that moving to Wi-Fi 6 is not usefull unles most devices Are Wi-Fi 6. That could means a long way to future. But if all those different devices works nicely together and you get benefits, I could move to Wi-Fi 6 router very soon. So a mixed test is definitely hoped for!

so damn true. thought the same
This is the only time in my IT Career I have said, "Wow, that Wireless Communications class(The reason I almost didn't graduate) really came in handy!".
Wi-Fi 6 drops CSMA/CD for OFDMA, which allows scheduling (almost similar to TDMA - the use of "time slots").
TIL the "Fi" in Wi-Fi doesn't stand for anything. They picked it just because it rhymes with Hi-Fi.
And no, it wasn't picked to mean Wireless Fidelity.

@@mithayes4m420 literally just google it

Funny you say that because the complete opposite is on Wikipedia:
*"Wi-Fi Alliance used the advertising slogan "The Standard for Wireless Fidelity" for a short time after the brand name was created,[21][25][26] and the Wi-Fi Alliance was also called the "Wireless Fidelity Alliance Inc" in some publications"*
*" IEEE is a separate, but related, organization and their website has stated "WiFi is a short name for Wireless Fidelity""*
Source please? As far as I know WiFi does stand for wireless Fidelity.
Meanwhile, ISPs are just introducting superfast 25 mbps internet on fibre.

@@jpegxguy In Australia they call it Fibre to the Node FTN. However at our house we got FTP Fibre to the premise before the other government ruined the National Broadband Network.

The biggest knock on this system is the price. You won't see this setup for residential use anytime soon especially if you're content with AC. But commercial will implement it soon. I control 20 venues in NYC (I was actually the Network Engineer for Brandcast CZcams event this past week) and I can't wait for the venue approval to upgrade our networks. We actually left Meraki and currently use Aruba.
WPA3 support is also mandatory for wifi 6 certification. You should have mentioned this as security is important! 🙂
WPA3 is not looking that good really. Check out the latest news on a vulnerability called "dragonblood" that affects this new protocol. But more importantly, check out what the security researchers say about the way this protocol was designed. I don't think WPA3 is going to be that good, because the fundamentals seem to be questionable to say it in some way and now they cannot change that. They will throw patches at it every time a new vulnerability is disclosed and we will all be using a broken protocol most of the time cause updates won't reach everyone fast enough.

I just noticed that this is *Meraki* hardware, which is owned by Cisco, but kinda goes its own way.
Meraki hardware doesn't work without a subscription to the Meraki management service.
It's good, it's powerful, it's pretty un-Cisco, but you're paying a fee for that AP for as long as you use it.
I have Meraki hardware in my business, and the subs that go with it.
That sounds awful. I had some Cisco aironet APs and I don't remember needing a subscription for them.
I should also point out that the subscription package includes full remote administration and diagnostics, and constant (and automatic if you want it that way) firmware updates. So, you are getting something good for your money.

Why then don´t you use UNIFI Products from Ubiquity. They are cheaper and no fees if the controller is locally hosted. If you don´t have a server avalible they even sell the controller as a hardware product.
@@MartinTvTV Ubiquity is when you are on a budget. Cisco is for when downtime cost money and your job.
Just upgraded from an old b/g/n to a new WiFi 6 access point-feel as happy as a kid, who received his first bicycle.
To think of that 802.11 wifi protocol is invented in my country. love to see it being upgraded and still being used.

Exactly.
you mean driver compatibility within the MS universe? aye, i hear you.
We don't do that on the highway.
98.99% now. (Thanks for the update)

you aren't that far off, there still is wifi6 8x8, or wifi6 2x2, or...
Moving into linus's work space, the only place i know in the world that will have working wifi 6 connection.
I love the new wifi rebranding. It's way less confusing to the end users.
Small remark to the presentation of the wifi vs 802.11 names: Wifi 6 != 802.11ax : you can refer with them to the same thing, but strictly speaking 802.11ax is the standard itself, and Wifi 6 is the certification a device can get if according to the 802.11ax standard, given by the wifi alliance.
You need a local speed test server.
Kinda disappointed he didn't at least try iperf3. Its not perfect, but it would likely get closer to the maximum. I can get 500Mbit down on my S10 from WiFi 5, and I used to get 600Mbit on my laptop before the neighbours moved over to 5Ghz.
I think another way to think about it is that the old wifi stuff is like casting your fishing line with it being super swirly for a bit and then when you reel it back you might hit some random junk on the floor. While the wifi 6 stuff will cast your line but with more of a straight line and when you reel it back in it will be a straight path with most clear water and a dumb fish that doesn't go under anything stupid lol.
Who else thought Linus was gonna drop the phone literally the entire time when he was talking due to his wild hand gestures? :D
I literally LOL'ed at the title in the into. USB is such a mess.
And here I am with my 100kbps potato wifi watching in a stunning 144p.
Retro style ᕕ( ՞ ᗜ ՞ )ᕗ
Solid 24 fps
oh, where exactly do you live?
probably in Asia
@@DarkElixirRaid 100 Mbps 14$ in India.
So glad I just picked up almost 20 of these for an Arena I work for, still not gonna risk it being a public wifi though!!
The rest of us with crappy internet plans will keep getting crappy wifi even with wifi 6 routers.
You should have done more WiFi testing
800mbps up is enough of a test.
Watching this while the 4G on my phone is nearly 20 times faster than my home internet. Australian internet sucks.
You get what you vote for
@@moglo5056 Anope. The NBN in Australia was quietly shafted after members of a certain political party (that the media corporations prop up as the "party of responsible economic management" despite sucking at economic management, because of these exact sorts of things) met with representatives of a certain disgusting media corporation known for terrible journalism and overt attempts at propaganda, then the new details of the proposed system hidden/lied about by media corporations, and people didn't even know what they were voting for. Not only do your votes not matter very much, the will of the donor class matters far more, as it did in this case, but the people rely on the honesty of the media to stay informed.
The media who strongly opposed the original proposal for the NBN. Because it threatened their business model. Don't shame voters to excuse a government that flagrantly acts against their best interests then lies about it to a cooperative media.
You don't get what you vote for. That's Just World fallacy b.s.
Engineers: "Behold Wi-Fi 6. With speeds over 3gb per second !"
Me: "I want one!"
ISP : "We can give you 500 mb/second. That will be 70$ a month :)"
Me: :(
It's not ONLY about internet connectivity. you can access resources on your network at those speeds. think about streaming 4k video to multiple devices via a on prem plex server with zero buffer delay over WiFi.
"Based on your location we can only offer you 12 Mbps download speed and maybe 600 Kbps upload on a good day." -My ISP Apparently
500mb/s is 4000mbps. Thats 4 gigabit per second.
@@jackbui2944 Most ISP networks list their internet in megabit, not megabyte.
@@shahnazfiaz2015 Yes, I'm pointing out the flaw, of saying the isp provides 400mb/s, when its actually 400mbps.
New to ur channel. Great information and easy-to-understand language!!!
Man I'd like to work at LTT.. Just for that blazing fast internet there😂😂

that breaks this wonderful dream for me
Shoutout to my 1 megabyte wifi speed homies
Its not my fault you did not turn off 802.11b ....... FYI turn off B.
Andrew Joy bro what are talking about bro?
eyyy
1 megaBIT. What you just said is 8 megabits per second.
600 megabyte gang?
BIT*
Stale bump 😂
Just got nighthawk mesh last night. Gonna go set it up 🎉
Ever since the video about the 'clickbait' video thumbnails, I can't help but critique every video thumbnail they publish. I hate them all but love the content.
Dark Alley:
Me:I need some of that OFDMA
Bad Guy:Came to the right place, how much?
Me:ALL OF IT.
It's funny how, as a long time viewer, you can instantly tell that this is a sponsored video. And for being that I think you did a great job. The average consumer now has an easy way to tell which WiFi is the fastest/best.
But I would personally much more prefer a video about 802.11ad/ay, which is operating at a much higher frequency (60 GHz).
Well I mean I think any viewer knows it is a sponsored video, he says it straight up but yeah it is nice how informative and well put together these videos are for the average consumer to understand. I think it is this channel's strong suit.
And the last Logitech video. I am not watching LTT with the same enthusiasm anymore not even close, it's all ads trying to keep LMG sustainable which they DO need but come on
its 2021 and I'm just now learning about wifi 6... guess my new router will get me caught up to all of the tech/working from home.
Looking to upgrade my ancient network. This video over a year later is the best explanation of the new tech. Dumbed down enough for me, but not so much that it's not useful. Got all the info I needed in a short video.
I'm barely using an AC router and now we're moving to faster speeds already?! What is this, technology?!
lol. *laughs in 480mb down*
This will help reduce congestion in crowded public places. Wifi 6 is more of a multitasker.
@@NonsensicalSpudz 480MB, or 480Mb?
@@ChunkyJo Mb megabit :P 480megabyte would be amazing
@@NonsensicalSpudz haha. That's why i asked. lol
WiFi 6 looks great, I’m looking forward to this to be widely available in consumer devices!
''.... years from now.''
Me too!
"OFDMA" is starting to sound suspiciously like the FLDSMDFR abbreviation from cloudy with a chance of meatballs lol
What I learned for the video: wifi is so damn great it's power can even rival the mighty windows October update. Their battle will be legendary.
